I see your site – did you get this fixed?
It is back up; the tech support at Start Logic, where I have my site hosted, disabled all of the plug-ins, which brought it back up. Now, I just have to figure out which plug-in is causing the trouble.
That’s part’s easy – just turn them back on one by one til you find the culprit. 😉 Feel free to report back when you find the cause as it may help others.
Well, it turns out to be ad injection causing the ruckus. When I went to activate it (it was just updated, today), I got this message;
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘&’, expecting T_VARIABLE or ‘$’ in /hermes/bosweb25a/b504/sl.penncentral/public_html/blog/wp-content/plugins/ad-injection/ad-injection-admin.php on line 780
I’m pretty limited in working knowledge of codes, etc. I had no problem with anything, until I hit update on it, today. It’s been making me pull out the 5 or 6 hairs I have left on my head, out.
It’s possible that it’s conflicting with your older version of WordPress – I see you’re still running 3.1.4.
You could try reverting back to the version of Ad Injection you were running before you upgraded.
I was hoping to do that; how would I go about doing that? I tried searching it on the search in the wordpress, but only the new one comes up. I’d love to upgrade to the new WordPress, but I think it’s the php(?)that’s the issue; it needs 5.2, I believe it is, and my provider is still on 4.9.
Thank you so much for your help.
I normally save backup copies of all my plug-ins, I take it you don’t have one? Try contacting the plug-in developer and asking for the a copy of last version that works with 3.1.4.
Yes, you will need PHP 5.2.4 or more recent to run WP 3.2. Have you asked your host if there’s a way to switch your account to PHP 5? Sometimes hosts have both running in parallel and it’s relatively easy to get PHP 5 going.
p.s. I noticed a similar syntax error reported on the developer’s site which was related to PHP4, but they said it was fixed in the latest version. Maybe a similar error was reintroduced recently for PHP4. Just a theory. You’re probably best to contact them directly at this point.
I’m bad about not backing things up, I’m afraid to admit. As for the php, I wondered about that, but hadn’t had a chance to contact them to find out, yet, between blogging and preparing a new radio program.
Was able to upload an older version and woo-hoo!! We are back up to full speed! Thanks again for your help!
